Black Box Recordings, by InMyOwnWorld

Mumble, mumble, mumble.

A slightly-shorter-than-normal episode, but the same old stuff… Going through my Do Deck hand for the day and trying to take care of some stuff around the house. And eating some stir fry.

Join me as I ignore the US federal holiday and instead work my way through my Do Deck hand until I am too exhausted to focus properly. About 50 minutes.

Restarting my morning, after a brief rest.

More of the same: doing morning tasks and preparing for my day.

Yet again motivating myself to do stuff by recording yet another episode of me, doing stuff. Including taking out the trash.

Rainy days are sapping my limited capacity for getting shit done, making my blahs twice as blah-y.. Join me on my doubly-blah morning as I medicate the cat and set myself up for the kitchening I intend to do later today.

Starting my day, medicating a cat, feeding crows, and going through my Do Deck to make sure things get done.

Starting off my post-cat-medication morning with some Do Deck organizing and replanning, due to some changes in another person’s plans. Then, I work through some of the cards in today’s hand.

Blerg.

Some dishwashing, using the recording of the episode to motivate myself to wash them, and the talking into a bluetooth earpiece as a way to keep my mind occupied while I did the washing.Enjoy.

Me, starting my day and getting my plans figured out. And processing a couple of photos.I make and post these recordings of myself talking to a potential future audience as a way to bypass some executive functioning difficulties and get some shit done.Enjoy.

A morning like many others. Me, planning and narrating, and going on tangents, as a way to motivate myself to do basic stuff around the house.Also, a slice of banana french toast.

Second attempt at recording an episode this morning. Used the hour of talking to a potential future audience as a way to motivate myself and focus for long enough to do the dishes.Enjoy.

I’m taking a short break from my pain medication, and I’m tired and sore and grumpy.In this episode, you get to hear me grump as I try to figure out how to pass an hour of time.Enjoy.

An hour-and-a-half of me, talking to myself, recording myself as I talk, planning my day and taking care of morning chores. Enjoy.

Same as usual. An unscripted, unedited, unfocused, unmonetized episode of me, an autistic ADHDer who struggles with planning, initiating, and following through with almost anything, using the act of talking to my hypothetical future audience to motivate myself to do things.'Take one' had a technical issue about 20 minutes in, but I was still able to do an hour and twenty minutes of puttering around, doing some dishes, and getting set up for my day (with a few tangents).

Another episode that is much like the episodes before. The name comes from a few times I stopped talking for a minute or two, leaving only environmental noises, which included the brushing of teeth and the vaping of nicotine.

I recorded this yesterday morning. Don’t remember much about it anymore. Just another standard ‘going through my morning Do Deck cards and starting my day’ episode, I think.

A standard ‘navigating my morning as a multiply neurodivergent person, using the tools/systems I’ve put in place to help me get shit done’ episode. Yes, it’s the first of April. No, I don’t play April Fools tricks.

Just another day of me, talking at my hypothetical future audience, while starting my day, looking at my Do Deck cards, and getting my brain operating at an acceptable level of awareness.Half the typical episode length!

Another of my ‘walking around and figuring out what to do with myself’ podcast episodes. There was some experimentation with a new microphone and an audio processing app earlier today, discussed toward the middle or end of the episode, that did not lead to any changes in the (abysmally low) production quality of my podcast.

A double-length episode! Of me… rambling into a bluetooth earpiece.After a brief and unwanted hiatus that I can blame on nothing but my own brain, I’m posting episodes again.These podcast episodes are primarily for myself. What you hear is what you get.

The episode begins with me explaining how a headlamp can help me maintain focus, before quickly devolving to a severe struggle to maintain focus, then segues into the standard day planning.Then I got distracted, and it took another day to upload and publish.

Unlike most episodes, this one is not me starting my day, planning things, or getting things done.This time, I describe some of the things and systems I use to help me start my day, plan things, and get things done.Our household has plenty of executive functioning struggles. Listen as I talk about some of the ways we deal with that..This is an unscripted, unfocused, unedited, unmonetized podcast with the production quality of something that has zero production quality. Enjoy.

Needed to go from scattered to focused, so I recorded this minisode of getting myself ready to run errands. Also discussed body doubling and rubber ducking in the last few minutes.

An attempt to start my day. Pre-recording, I assembled my Do Deck hand for the day. This episode is an hour of me wandering around the house, getting some things done, and trying to find the five-foot long wooden staff that I misplaced in the house earlier in the recording.Seriously. A five or five-and-a-half foot long wooden hardwood staff. Had it in my hands. Walked into another room. Had to search the house multiple times, finally giving up in the last minutes of the recording, only to find it exactly where I left it.

A half-hour episode of me trying to get my mind off Wordpress customization and on the day ahead.Basically, decompressing after many hours of hyperfocus yesterday, and trying to prevent it from happening again today… at least until I’ve got the important things taken care of for the day.Also some cat meows near the beginning.

Mostly a rambling monologue on some of the objects and methods I use to accommodate my neurodivergences and physical disabilities.Unlike my typical podcasts, where I’m trying to get things done or start my day, this was recorded to pass an hour of time, and was more relaxing than ranting about the state of the world for an hour.

The person who calls me on a schedule and listens as I think out loud and reminds me of things I’d said previously is too sick to do that today, so I thought out loud into a podcast instead.Mostly just me going through a checklist of things and spending some time thinking about and/or doing them.

I used to have someone call me three times a week to be an extra brain while I thought and planned and tasked, but switched to twice a week a while back. The cards I use to remind me of things include my ‘call cards’ with the checklist to go through during each call. When I dropped down to two calls per week, I turned one of the call cards into a no-call card, so I could try to coax myself through the checklist without help once a week.That’s the majority of this episode—me, working my way through my no-call card checklist.

It’s the first day of the new year, according to the Gregorian calendar, and I wanted to record an episode. Except I didn’t have the energy to talk for a full hour. So you get this minisode.I’m less eloquent and more unfocused than typical, and there was very little useful that was actually said, but I did make food for myself and got started on some stuff in the kitchen.Enjoy.

Today is the 48th anniversary of my birth, according to the Gregorian calendar.This episode is similar other recent episodes, with me talking about everything and nothing, while babbling more-or-less non-stop, being a little productive around the house, and making sure that I'm prepared to move forward with my day.

A morning in the kitchen, bumbling around and getting a few things done, while narrating what I’m doing and going off onto tangents.

Me, starting my day, and trying (with occasional success) to focus on getting ready for my day (which includes figuring out what that entails).I accidentally named a person I was trying to leave unidentified, so I did have to make one edit, covering up my oopsie. I apologize. I promised an unedited podcast, and I’ve already broken my word to you by the fourth episode. And I’ll do it again, too, the next time I accidentally drop a name that shouldn’t have been dropped.

Join me, InMyOwnWorld, as I think about the day ahead and try to make some plans for it.Recorded the morning of Nov. 28, 2025

The second episode of Black Box Recordings, by InMyOwnWorld. Unscripted. Unedited. Unfocused. Unmonetized.At the time of recording, I wasn’t sure if this would replace the original pilot or become the second episode. Either episode works, if you want an introduction to the podcast, but neither stood out to me as spectacular. So, I guess you get two mediocre pilot episodes.Recorded on November 27, 2025.

The pilot episode of Black Box Recordings, by InMyOwnWorld, an unscripted, unedited, unfocused, unmonetized podcast of me, InMyOwnWorld, rambling about whatever crosses my mind.This was recorded on October 1st, 2025, while I was under the influence of an inebriating beverage. Future episodes are unlikely to have as much slurring or swearing.NOTE FROM THE FUTURE: this pilot is episode not particularly representative of typical episodes.

Welcome to my new podcast.Unscripted. Unedited. Unfocused. Unmonetized.Just me, talking into a cheap bluetooth earpiece, while I wander around my house.Who am I? I am InMyOwnWorld, a disabled queer non-binary anti-capitalist middle-aged white autistic ADHDer with a tic disorder and a podcast.
